“He went above and beyond for his family and friends, everyone who knew him loved him. His smile will be greatly missed, the way it lit his face and made his eyes sparkle.
“His cute little laugh and the way he made me feel safe and loved, Hizar was truly one of a kind. He accomplished so much in the little time he was given and made the most of life.
